摘要

Mongolian undergraduate students may face unique mental health challenges due to their nomadic lifestyle, moving from rural areas to cities, and losing friends and family support. This study aimed to adapt and pilot test the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-Being Scale (WEMWBS) for Mongolian students. The translation followed the International Test Commission's guidelines and recommendations from Warwick Medical School (Warwick Medical School, n.d.). Data from 453 students across public and private universities in two Mongolian cities were collected. Confirmatory factor analysis was performed twice to evaluate model fit, first on the training sample (N = 278) and second on the test sample (N = 175). The Positive and Negative Affect Schedule was used to assess convergent and divergent validities. Reliability was evaluated through item-total correlation and Cronbach's alpha. The findings suggest that the Mongolian version of Warwick Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale (MWEMWBS) is a valid and reliable tool for further large-scale validation studies.
